FFPE Sample Inventory

A human biomaterial bank for all your needs

Our sample investory contains more than 12,000 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples from various diseased and adjacent normal tissues.

The large majority of the FFPE pairs consist of various tumor type specimens and adjacent normal tissues.

Nucleic acids from these FFPE tissues can be extracted and then utilized to generate expression profiles, identify new microRNAs, and used in epigenetic and genotyping analyses.  All of this work can also be performed by BioServe scientists within our preclinical molecular service division.

Please refer to the table below for our full FFPE inventory breakdown by disease type.  Please note that subjects may have donated multiple samples.
